I once saw a woman at the bookstore who just had a list of Oprah books and was mindlessly putting them in her basket. I found that behavior utterly bizarre, but I must admit, Oprah has nailed a few of her choices. While I don't think one should read a book solely because of Oprah, it's probably not good to refuse to read one because of her either. I'm glad you wound up finding this book unexpectedly rewarding.
